"A wearable interactive partner finder. Moon Gaze connects you to your significant other regardless of your positions on earth using interactive digitally-connected garments. Our idea inspired from an old well-known Chinese poem Shui Diao Ge Tou by Shi Su (also known as Tungpo Su, 1037 – 1101). This poem describes the poet himself travelling long distances and missing his family. The moon is a comfort for him, because no matter how far people are separated, they are still watching and sharing the beauty of the same moon. Chinese people still carry on this traditions as part of the Mid Autumn Festival. Moon gaze is a contemporary take on this desire for long distance connectedness through facing one another. With Moon Gaze, one can find, face, and connect with their partner irregardless of physical distance."
